+50.4 %

  • REVENUE: increased as a result of higher physical energy sales (+11.3 %), which shows the higher consumption of our customers given the economic recovery in the country compared to 2020, a year that included the months of greatest impact of the health crisis caused by the COVID-19.
  • EBITDA: increased by 18 % compared to the previous year. The increase in income offset the higher physical purchases of energy (+10.9 %) and a higher average purchase price (+3.1 %) associated with the indexation of the tendered contracts.
  • NET INCOME: increased due to a better operating result, which offset the increase in amortizations related to higher investments during 2021, as well as an increase in income tax due to a higher tax base.
  • DEBT WITH THIRD PARTIES: increased by PEN 150 million to finance the annual investment plan and to continue providing payment assistance to our clients during the health emergency. In this way, we ensure the continuity and quality of the service provided, while also supporting families in our concession area during the pandemic.
  • CAPEX: increased by PEN 199 million, due to a greater execution of digitization projects, and the increase in maintenance activities and expansion of our networks. It should be noted that the electricity supply in our concession area has been operating normally since the start of the pandemic.
